Cann woods 25th August
« on: August 25, 2008, 17:39:00 PM »

went up the woods today, took a few snaps. Me riding, my brother snapping.

What do you all think??

Constructive crits please.

3. probably a little too dark.

I might have gone overkill on black and whites, but tell me what you think of composition/general riding anyhoo.  Grin

Camera used: Fuji Finepix S9600

Some seem quite bright, you could set the shutter speed to make them dark (and they'd be less blurred), that way they'd have better contrast and the rider would stand out more.

Looks like you may need to improve your panning, you'll get it with practice, on the more side on shorts.

With that camera it is possible pre-focus the camera on a spot where the rider will enter, that might help you.

I think 2 is the best, 3 would be better if it weren't back focused (hence where pre-focusing might come in handy).
